Cayéya Single Barrel Reposado Tequila
Cayéya Single Barrel Reposado Tequila is a 100% Blue Weber agave reposado from NOM 1424 in the Jalisco valley that pushes the category to its limit: nine months in meticulously re-charred American oak barrels followed by roughly two and a half months in French wine casks — 11.5 months in all, just short of añejo territory — bottled one barrel at a time at 40% ABV in a 750mL bottle, so no two batches are identical. The base spirit is the same as the Blanco: agave cooked in stone and brick ovens, roller milled, fermented in stainless steel without fibers and twice distilled. It is available to order online at Del Mesa Liquor.

A Reposado at an Añejo's Depth
Cayéya's official house notes describe this single-barrel aging as a symphony of vanilla, caramel, spice and floral undertones from the interplay of American and French oak. It comes in the brand's heavy embossed glass, here in deep amber with a cork stopper and wolf-head hang tag.

Tasting Notes
Toasted vanilla, caramel, toffee and butterscotch on the nose with dried flowers and spice from the French oak. The palate is creamy — vanilla, rich caramel, toasted coconut, a hint of smoke and gentle cinnamon, nutmeg and clove — and the finish is long and velvety with vanilla, caramel and dark chocolate.
How to Enjoy
